On preparing to return home from an out of town trip, a man got a small puppy as a present for his son. Not having the time to get the paperwork to take the puppy on board, the man just hid the pup down the front of his pants and sneaked him aboard the airplane.

About 30 minutes into the flight, a flight attendant noticed the man shaking and quivering. “Are you OK, sir?” “Yes,” said the man, “But I have a confession to make. I didn’t have time to get the paperwork to bring a puppy on board, so I hid him down the front of my pants.”

“What’s wrong? Is he not housebroken?” “No, that’s not the problem. The problem is he’s not weaned yet!”

Wean: To accustom (the young of a mammal) to take nourishment other than by suckling.
